Red Hair Korean Orphan Teague Korea

Comments: I'm trying to find out what happened to a beautiful little toddler in an orphanage in Teague, Korea. She stood out from the 300 babies and toddlers in that orphanage because of her red hair. She had the delicate Asian facial features and red hair of an American GI. If anyone can help me locate her or tell me what happened to her , I would appreciate it very much.

My Grandfather Herbert Henry Hayton

Comments: I have started a family tree/history project, I am looking to gain more stories and information from when my grandfather served in the USAF. I know that he had a temporary assignment at Hamilton AFB in route to Elmendorf AFB, the time span is approx 1949-1950. When he was stationed at Elmendorf, he kept his assignment as part of "MATS". He was involved in the transportation of troops and supplies to the Korean War, and he was promoted to Corporal. The story gets a little bit weird, there was an incident that had occurred to my grandfather and the men that he served with, he does not like to talk about this, and from what I have gathered from other family members, there was a plane crash, and he was the only surviving member on the plane. After this incident he spent one year inbetween two hospitals in the US- the 183rd General Hospital at Fort Richardson, Anchorage Alaska and Valley Forge General Hospital, Phoenixville Pennsylvania. After he was released from the hospitals he was sent to Fort Slocum, New Rochelle, New York, it was here that he had to await his next assignment. At some point in 1951, my grandfather was assigned to the 1st Air Force 52nd Fighter Wing 568th Air Base Group at McGuire AFB, New Jersey. He worked as a Postal Clerk and was promoted to Sgt and made NCO. After his 4 years (total time) he was honorably discharged. He re-enlisted 3 months later back into the USAF and was stationed at Sampson AFB, Geneva New York, his assignment was to train Basic's (new airmen). In July of 1953, he married my grandmother, then the new regulation came out which allowed him to be honorably discharged, giving him a total of 5 1/2 years proudly serving in the USAF. My grandfather's name is Herbert Henry Hayton, he joined the service is February of 1948, he hailed from Rochester, New York. If anyone remembers him, served with him, took care of him at the hospitals or whatever, I would appreciate it if you could contact me and tell me about my grandfather. He is still alive and doing very well, but the memories still haunt him and he doesn't like to talk about it, so I will take whatever help that I can get. Thanks for protecting the American dream, and the American people, and thank you for helping me to complete my family history.

First F-105 Thuds to Osan

Comments: I am writing a story for my web site, talkingproud.us, about the "Second korean War" in the period 1965-1969. I know that the F-105 Thunderchief was deployed to Osan to replace the B-57B of the 3rd Bomb Wing in 1964. But I have not been able to identify the specific squadron to deploy. I believe it was from the 8th TFW, either the 35th or 36th, but cannot confirm it. And if it were from the 8 TFW, well, it did not stay for long, because it went back to the states in 1964, converted to the F-4, and went to Thailand. So I am at a loss which squadrons supplied the Thud to Osan in the period 1964-1968. A ton of units came over after the Pueblo, so that's not my problem. The question has to do with which squadron(s) supplied the Thuds 1964-1968.

My Daddy A.W. (Bill) Phillips

Comments: I just wanted to write a quick memorial to my Daddy, who passed on November 4, 2005. He was a proud veteran of the USAF and was a Korean War Vet. He worked civil service for the rest of his career and earned the Meritorious Civil Service Award upon his retiremnet in 1988.

He was a brilliant, loving man and loved his country. He was passionate about our government and researched and argued his points up until the day before he died. I'm sure his email/chat groups will miss him! Well, I hope they do...

Dad is part of a long line of military service in our family, including: both of my brothers and both of my nephews. We have served from the Revolutionary War and up to today.

He was a proud veteran.

I just wanted to say good-bye and to let anyone who knew him know he passed peacefully.

Looking for Information about Robert Lawson, possibly KIA in 1953

Comments: Hi! Hope all of you had a great Memorial Day weekend. We need your help. I work at the Courthouse-on-the-Square Museum in Denton, TX.

We are looking for information on Bob Lawson who was in the Air Force in Korea in the 1950s. We think that he died in about 1953, probably in Korea. We also have his name listed as Robert Lawson and Joseph Robert Lawson. He was the husband of Annetta Moten Lawson whom he married the early 1940s. We know that he was drafted in WWII. Before that he had been an Assistant Librarian for the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. We know that when he was stateside in the Air Corps he worked in Personnel and that he was a T/Sgt at that time. Also, he was stationed in New Mexico and in the early 1950s, Okinawa. We have recently acquired the collection of his father-in-law, Dr. Edwin D. Moten who was a prominent African American doctor in Denton and later in Indianapolis. We are looking for more details about Bob Lawson's career in the military and his death. We really appreciate your help. You can contact me

Many thanks from old Donut Dollie.

Comments: I know nothing about my father; I write this simply hoping that, if he still lives, he will recognize the little information that I'm able to provide. I was born in FUKUOKA, Japan on May 6, 1951. My mother's name was MICHIKO TATABE. I have a couple of photographs of my mother and me, which I believe were taken by him (given my mother's expression). Also, a professionally made photo from a studio in Nagoya. I was placed in a Catholic orphanage when I was about 2 1/2 years old. I was told by my adoptive parents (stationed at Camp Gifu) that I was told that the reason for this was that my mother was dying and my father had been killed in the war. I was told that his name was LEE WARD, that he was from VIRGINIA and that perhaps he was an M.P., because everytime I saw a policeman, I would point and say "That's my daddy" in Japanese. That was very likely due to seeing any man in uniform. I don't want anything from him. I would just like for him to know that he has five grandchildren, beautiful in spirit and looks, and three lovely great granddaughters. Monique Frazier

Looking for Dennis M. Compos and Dave Paul Adams

Comments: Hi, I am looking for two of my dad's friends. My dad's name is Don Lee Davis. I am looking for Dennis M. Compos and Dave Paul Adams. My dad met Dennis at USAF Instrument Specialist School at Chanute AFB in 1949. We think that Dennis was later assigned to Hamilton AFB in CA and then sent to a transport squadron in Korea - maybe Kimpo AFB at time of North Korean invasion. He might have been KIA in Korea, but I can't find any record of that.

Dave Paul Adams met my dad at USAF Airplane Mechanic school at Kessler AFB in Biloxi Miss, class 03248. We think he was assigned to tow target squadron at Barksdale AFB, Miss. He was in the Air Cadet class 50D and assigned to the Ist strategic support squadron at Biggs AFB, El Paso TX where he was a 2nd Lt. After the Korean War he was employed by Blue Mountain Air Service in Oregon. Please, any information you might have on these two people, or if you ARE one of them, please contact me. My dad wants to see you both again! Thanks, Heather Davis
